Parco naturale Orsiera-Rocciavrè

The park spans 10,955 hectares across alpine regions between Susa, Chisone, and Sangone valleys, featuring diverse landscapes from mountain peaks to xeric zones.

Established in 1980 through regional legislation, the park was created to preserve natural ecosystems and protect the environmental heritage of the Piedmont region.

The production of Plaisentif cheese within the park area represents a connection between traditional agricultural practices and the mountain environment.

Visitors can access information and resources at the Pintas Visitor Center, which provides maps, guides, and equipment recommendations for park exploration.

The park contains four peaks exceeding 2,800 meters, including Monte Orsiera and Rocca Nera, alongside numerous glacial lakes in its middle-eastern section.
